None of them are good.

Seems like this is almost always the conclusion when I'm looking for a game to play lol

If you want recommendations for newer titles, I've been playing Trials of Fire and Warhammer 40k Gladius a lot lately and would totally recommend them. Outside of these, Gloomhaven is also very good, but I haven't been playing it much because I play it with a friend who doesn't have a lot of time. As for older titles, I've only been playing some Tomb Raider and Age of Mythology lately, but if you haven't given them a try do it.

I'd never compare DK 1-2 vs these three games. They're not even close to the same. There are other newer games that try to be DK (I tend to ignore these like Dungeons 1-3, war of the overlord, etc).

I do have Warlord 1-2 somewhere. I forget what this genre is even called but I always feel Populous was one of the few inspirations amongst a few other management games that made DK come to be.

DD/VAM/Iratus are just time plinkers I hardly take serious. Boredom yes. I guess I could play Lemmings or Worms instead.

The September RPG month has started and I notice entries that seem irksome by some companies. Divinity 1-2 looks to have 2 new categories and Kingmaker and Wrath have a few ultra packages. When I compare it with the pre-order it seems like shit is missing in the pre-order.

There are times the completionist in me gets annoyed.

I noticed the manual for the geneforge remaster is in the cluebook package. That's a bit retarded but seems par for the vogel course (not that the game is all that complicated).

I guess each week will bring something new.

if you want to try a game that's simple and free the try Crypt Wizard.

i feel young again, although i'm wondering why armada 1 is delayed. probably because they're trying to figure out how to get the directx wrapper to work for it

bridge commander is incredible. please get it

 

[zapotec]

How is this? Looks cool

[jebsmoker]

it's a low rent xcom/commandos clone. i can personally suggest elite force 1, 2, bridge commander, and starfleet command 3. it's surprising to see starfleet command 3 on gog since activision's star trek license expired shortly after it was released and they had to stop producing copies of it

How's Hidden Evil?

I liked it. Still have the box in my shelf.

You will be gunning down a lot of aliens in the name of the federation

How's Hidden Evil?

Weird adventure game with awkward as hell combat. I liked it though, got that old PC game charm to it.

It is a Commandos clone, only a lot easier.
It is okay, I guess. But I must admit, I never finished it, because I got bored after some levels.

 

[Morpheus Kitami]

Oooo, Starfleet Command 3 is out, I remember that being a bitch to get working these days. An issue I curiously also remember plaguing Away Team and that 4X game. My memory of Away Team is fuzzy, but I remember going in expecting something like Jagged Alliance and getting something that wasn't, and being greatly disappointed because of that. Also couldn't get used to playing it, but that could just be because young me couldn't figure out stealth mechanics.

Should be a give-away instead. Who is still buying into this trash genre?

No gameplay, shitty art, shitty humour, and puzzles and stories from pretentious retards who think they're smart and/or funny. No thanks, I'd rather die than play, let alone buy, any of these low-effort cash-grabs.

Also, the only time when that trademark Reflexive sterile aesthetic fit the setting.

HMMM .... Tokyo Xanadu $12. 80% off. Is that JRPG ... ok?

 

[Tom Selleck]

I'm a little disappointed they didn't do a buy all these Star Trek games bundle/deal/sale

 

[KeighnMcDeath]

They did with older ones. October sale then November sales and finally holiday/winter sale. Actually, there have been a ton of sales. Maybe a Star Wars/Trek sale.

 

[Bad Sector]

I was never into Star Trek (not out of any specific reason, i just never watched the series) but i remember playing Elite Force at some point. Wishlisted them.

I'd like to see Klingon Honor Guard and The Fall too, i remember playing demos of these years ago.

Yeah, I played the Klingon demo too. I seem to remember it was a competent 90's shooter, but it's been 20 years since then so my memory is fuzzy about it.

Armada is still TBA. They might do one when it's actually in the store.

Anyone of you cretins who gave this post naughty buttons, come forth with some arguments defending this shit genre! Why should I play one of these aweful non-games, which are even worse than modern walking sims? What are they better at than real games with actual gameplay? The stories are worse than even the worst novels or even RPGs, the art is worse than even the worst comics, the humour is worse than modern stand-up comedy (except female, but who uses them as a standard), the puzzles are always some kind of moon-logic, because they're the only thing that could be called gameplay with some good will and the devs feel they need to make the gameplay somewhat profound, because nothing else is about this lowest form of 'entertainment' (calling these abominations 'torture' would be more fitting, eventhough people seem to subject themselves willingly).

Worst genre ever.

 

[Taluntain]

<verbal diarrhoea>

Worst genre ever.

 

[fork]

You convinced me right there.

Spoiler

In case you retards didn't notice, you're playing these 'games' after all: this was sarcasm.

Edit:
How about some arguments, Taluntain? That shit meme is all you got in your brain? Doesn't surprise me tbh. Kinda off topic, but didn't you raise money to update the forum software? That still coming?
